Sir Guy Charteris, wealthy entrepreneur, has purchased a large area of Shanghai, forcing Gin Sling to vacate by the coming Chinese New Year. Under orders from Gin Sling, who has found out Poppy is Charteris' daughter, the smarmy Doctor Omar leads Poppy deeper and deeper into an addiction to gambling and alcohol. Gin Sling, realizing that Charteris was her long-ago husband who she thinks abandoned her, plans her revenge by inviting Charteris to a Chinese New Year dinner party to expose his past indiscretions. Charteris, however, has a surprise of his own to spring on Gin Sling. Reviews: Between 1927 and 1932, Sternberg was putting out 2-3 movies per year. Most of the movies made during this period are affirmations; people faithless, who all of a sudden fall in love when they thought it impossible and discover the meaning of life. Then suddenly there is a year where Sternberg doesn't make a single film. Based on the film he put out next, it would appear that all of a sudden Sternberg lost all faith in humanity. The best movies of the years that followed (The Scarlet Empress, The Devil is A Woman, The Shanghai Gesture & Anatahan) are all defined by power games, not faith. Love is now nothing more but a masochistic illusion. Of course, Gesture is no exception to this rule. There's no family relationship in movies that is as twisted and is so deliriously f*cked up as this. - written by "Neil Bahadur" on letterboxd.com Also Known As (AKA): (original title) The Shanghai Gesture Argentina La pecadora de Shanghai Australia The Shanghai Gesture Belgium Shanghai stad der dwaasheid(Flemish) Belgium Shangai, ville de folies(French) Brazil Tensão em Shangai Canada The Shanghai Gesture(English) Denmark De 1000 lasters hus Finland Uhkapeliä Shanghaissa France The Shanghai Gesture(Alternative Title) France Shangai, ville de folies France Collection Le Cinéma du Monde: The Shanghai Gesture [fr](Video Title) France Shangaï(dubbed version) France Shanghaï Greece Αμαρτωλές αγάπες Greece Οι κολασμένοι της Σαγκάης(Festival Title) Hungary Bosszú Shanghajban Hungary Gin Sling Italy I misteri di Shanghai Japan 上海ジェスチャー(Japanese) Mexico La pecadora de Shanghai(Alternative Title) Mexico Mujeres de Shangai Netherlands Shanghai(Alternative Title) Netherlands Zijn schulden betaald Norway Shanghai-mysterier Poland Kasyno w Szanghaju Portugal Aconteceu em Xangai Romania Gestul din Shanghai Soviet Union Жестокий Шанхай(Russian) Spain Aventura en Shanghai(Alternative Title) Spain El embrujo de Shanghái Sweden De tusen fröjdernas hus Turkey Sanghay Batakhaneleri(Turkish) United Kingdom The Shanghai Gesture United States The Shanghai Gesture United States La pecadora de Shanghai(Spanish) West Germany Abrechnung in Shanghai West Germany Im Banne von Shanghai(TV Title) Yugoslavia Sangajski gest(Serbian) ···················································································· ✘ Website: https://www.artflix.info/ FOLLOW US! ✘ Twitter - https://twitter.com/Artflixtv SUPPORT US! ✘ Membership: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNcUc5v0Kt5afE_jcbbZUBQ/join MORE MOVIES! ► Film Noir: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8zZFQfLjXuXBFcLF_oP35pQX098fUhQ1 ► Classic Movies: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8zZFQfLjXuUU37GjccbV249yYIHDYrjS ► All Playlists: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNcUc5v0Kt5afE_jcbbZUBQ/playlists ···················································································· COPYRIGHT: All of the films published by us are legally licensed.
